Q:

Improve the given sentence if necessary.

I am living in Bombay for the last ten years.

A) had lived	B) have been living
C) lived	D) No improvement

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) have been living

Explanation:

If some action has started in the past and is still continuing, then present perfect continuous tense should be used instead of present continuous tense. So, the phrase ‘am living’ needs to be replaced with ‘have been living’ to make the sentence contextually correct. Thus, the correct formation would be, ‘I have been living in Bombay for the last ten years’.
